“Ask yourself, ‘Can I reuse any of my existing carcasses in the new kitchen?’ Using the original carcasses and adding a new benchtop, doors and drawers can significantly reduce costs as well as the VOCs and raw materials required for a project,” says Rowlands.“If you’re putting in new joinery, consider whether you can use E0 Plywood/MDF for joinery. E0 is a certification representing the lowest level of formaldehyde emissions, which makes for less harmful chemicals in your home and is safer for your tradespeople to work with too.“Consider if you can specify low- or no-VOC paints and finishes. Specifying natural hard-finishing oil or wax to timber surfaces means no ongoing VOC emissions,” he says.
